A new venture between The European Tour’s website, www.europeantour.com, and market leader Longshot Golf Holidays will provide a range of holiday and spectator package options for golfers throughout Europe.
Longshot has been appointed as the official online golf holiday partner of europeantour.com and the new site – www.holidayeuropeantour.com – has now been launched.

As a recognised leader in European golf tourism, Longshot will bring a new dimension of quality online services for followers of The European Tour.”
This partnership will provide golfers with the opportunity to visit some of the best tournament venues around the world, watch the professionals and play the courses. Visitors to holidayeuropeantour.com will be able to view packages to a wide-range of destinations and choose programmes with or without a flight. Those visiting from euro-zone countries or other areas will also be able to check their chosen holiday cost in a range of currencies.
Overseas golf breaks lead-in at £245 for a 3-night package including flights and car hire or £315 for 7 nights. UK and Ireland breaks are also available with a 2-night stay leading in at £129 per person. Discounted, pre-bookable green fees are offered throughout the programme.
The European Tour International Schedule extends beyond Europe to South Africa, Australia, Asia and the Middle East offering the golfer a combination of great golf and exotic holiday locations.
Throughout the 2004 season (and the remainder of 2003), Longshot will be bringing European golfers details of Tour news and bespoke spectator packages to selected Tour events.
